Lots of news...that's not so new

So...I decided to finally write another post! I know...it's about time! But hey in my defense those who I know do/have read my blog already know all of the events that have transpired between the end of May and now. For one, Jon and I got married! Sealed for all time and eternity in the Mesa Arizona temple on June 5, 2010! It was simply amazing! A beautiful, very hot (110...the hottest day so far in the summer), summer day! Sarah and Jessica came over to do my hair and take pictures of me getting ready to get married! :) Then my mom, dad, and I all got in the car and headed to the temple. We were going to pick up Jon, but he decided to meet us there. Which ended up being a good thing because he would have left our marriage license in the car and would have had to go a lot farther than the parking lot to find it. :P The ceremony was beautiful, and what made it even better was that Jon's Grandpa Cardon preformed it. :) After that my day kind of turns into a blur. We took pictures of course, had a luncheon, I packed for the honeymoon, Jon "started" packing (which consisted of realizing he didn't have any clean clothes and starting a load of laundry), then we headed to the church for the reception. It was beautiful! My grandma had done an amazing job with the flowers and thanks to a lot of help from those who came to set up the night before everything looked beautiful!

We spent our honeymoon in Wyoming and then slowly made our way back though Utah to Arizona. We stopped in Brigham City to visit with some of Jon's mission buddies. Made another stop in Provo to visit some friends. Then we went up to Lindon where we were fed an amazing dinner by the Heath's (Zuniga's family friends). Then we finally made it all the way home. However we had to stay at Jon's family's that night because we didn't exactly have the keys to our apartment yet. But that's where my birthday comes in! :) You see we got back on Saturday in the late afternoon/early evening, opened wedding presents then went to sleep. On Sunday we got hold of the Boyle's and were able to get the keys from them after church. Then we moved in! :) Wonderful birthday present!

Fast forward to mid July. I went up to Idaho with my mom and three of my little brothers for the Terry family reunion. This is where I became highly suspicious of being pregnant, however I didn't know "for sure" until after I took a pregnancy test when Jon and I were finally reunited. (Yes, I know I was brave for leaving my new husband for a whole week...I missed him terribly). That's when the real fun began. I wasn't sick, just tired and kinda weak in the mornings until I ate something. From Idaho we went to Wyoming for the Roberts' reunion, then Utah for Jon's mission companion's wedding. And then finally home!

I am now 15 weeks pregnant and getting so excited to have a little one of my own! I know I still have a long way to go, but March 23rd is 6 months away! :) Jon is completely convinced that we're having a little girl. I don't know what to think yet. I guess we'll find out in 5 weeks or so. :)

I think that's all for now... hopefully I won't be too incredibly slow at writing the next post. :)
